    We did not have a drive for my husband prior to this purchase and our daughter dropped his external hard drive. So many lost memories but this has help with our transition.

    I refuse to buy any external hard drive that does not have its own power--this one does and is working great. External drives that do not have their own power source don't last more than a year or two.

    This drive was perfect for our purpose. We wanted financial records to be on a backup drive that we could disconnect routinely, keeping it safe from computer failure or hacking. Good setup instructions. Works well.

    Bought this external drive to be able to store back ups from our PCs so in case of a failure. Drive has a fast transfer rate due to USB 3.0. Drive is very quiet, and sleeps after a short time of non use.
